Thread to talk about actor Tom Hiddleston.
Interview - all 7.9 seconds of it.
>>698 Plane pic is from his trip to Berlin to publicise TNM during SI filming.
How do I know this when I can't remember the name of a single case?
>>701 It seems like stuff was cut from that video interview. I don't believe for a second that nobody dared asking him about TS.
>>696 According to the tags that 11 year old is wearing a "1989" hoodie. So we know the answer to that.
Capcha says, simply, "no"
No bodyguard while jogging. They only want to save Taylor!
Where did Anon. get the ref about moving to the mansion from? I didn't get it from that link.
Tom Hiddleston Is Here to Show You How NOT to Wear Sunscreen
http://www.glamour.com/story/tom-hiddleston-sunburn-taylor-swift
>>703 I think there will be more posted later. I'm sure TS will be mentioned. The response will be interesting.
The DM jogging article now has a short video. He's engaging with the guy, answering questions about Oz. The guy doesn't mention the T word!
The Taylor stuff will come once she gives her approval lol They're probably waiting on it
>>711 I'll bet she's back at the hotel or wherever wringing her hands over every word. Wait for it....wait for it....
new pair of sunglasses (I didn't notice it in the airport pics) and his hair seems much shorter than yesterday

This is interesting. My conclusion differs since I don't believe TH is gay (besides Luke has a bf). But the fact that Luke was there makes the idea of the God of Mischief playing a prank more realistic, to me, I know you all disagree.

Bwahahahha yass do a twinnie Vogue shoot
>>714 Everyone keeps saying Luke has a bf but where is the evidence? I've only ever seen one very old photo of him sitting on the orange makeup artists husbands lap on a double date with TH
>>713 Do you think those could be TSs ray bans? Hers have bigger lenses than his and were wider in the bridge, I think she has the wayfarer classics.
>>714 Some blogs claim that TSs relationship with CH was fake, and cite the evidence that his PR agent accompanied them on some of their alleged "date nights." If that is true, then LWs presence during July 4th festivities could imply that this relationship is PR. But who in their right mind would allow their client to wear that tank top...weird. All press can't be good press. I wonder if THs Emmy nomination or lack of nomination will affect the situation at all.
Jessica Chastain told a film critic from Vanity Fair that Tom Hiddleston is gay. I don't think he would make this up and post it publicly:
https://twitter.
com/rilaws/status/751687424506560512
Oh sorry, it was not Chastain. It was another Jessica.
9news rest of the video. He doesn't answer about TS.
http://theopiniondominion.tumblr.com/post/147133500090/taytaylove13-video-tom-this-morning-in-gold
I imagined TS's fans to be young but this is too young
>>718 That film critic has been on point with the best snark throughout the last three weeks. He's been convinced all along its a hoax. I guess that's why.
I'm at the point where desperate gay Tom is far more appealing than famewhore middle aged crisis Tom. I would faghag him all the way
https://www.tumblr.com/search/amanda%20grossman
This is the photo- it's Amanda Grossman's husband, not Lukes bf so unless they're swingers...
>>717 If CH's publicist went on dates with CH/TS that just says to me that at this level most celebrities' attitude to relationships is fundamentally fucked up.
>>719 she works for Indiewire, so I suppose this is a rumour among film journalists.
>>722 That's not why people say Luke has a bf since everybody knew that was Amanda's husband. I don't have a photo for you, I know I read the name of Luke's bf at a CB thread, but it was months ago if not years ago. Sorry.
>>725. I am sure I have read he has a BF. There are Luke Windsor fan tumblrs (seriously....) so I am sure they will have the name.
PS I suppose the haircut is because he will be wearing the Loki wig so it might be more comfortable to have shorter hair (as he did for OLLA). No dye job I am guessing, which is a pity because the Avengers wig where they blended with his own hairline was a lot better than the rubbish wig he wore in TDW.
>>725 >>726 Ah, I've only ever seen that photo used as 'evidence'. Can't believe he has fans, that is tragic
Most certainly the TH is gay rumor seems to be entrenched amongst journos, particularly gay journos. One could argue they would know more.
Last week I would have agreed but this week I'm coming round to believing it's a real relationship, be it an odd one with crap sex and too many professional perks. Perhaps they are just finally getting better at faking it...
>>727 I think so, but somehow the very short hair made that photo a bit...shocking (I don't know what's worse for his hair at this point, the wig or the dyeing). Maybe his hairline has receded too much to blend it with a wig.
>>727 >>729 Wigs can be applied on any length of hair. If he cut it, it was simply because he wanted to. He probably used the hairdressers on set when he visited out of convenience. Usually all cuts and colors are 'in- house' (not outsourced) since cast members don't have time to visit salons and they want to maintain lengths/ colors.
I preferred the blended hair too but I imagine he refuses to color his hair any more than is absolutely necessary in fear of more falling out
>>730 It's a mystery to me why the Thor 2 wig was so bad. The CP wig was also swept back from the brow but the hairline looked so natural by comparison.
Looked at the jogging pics and he looks so much happier and more relaxed. Because he is basically now on set, in his domain? Because he feels he can change the narrative to the Work? Because he knows that he'll be shot of TS in a couple of weeks when she flies home? (naughty!)
I do not think I can cope with 3 months of her smug chipmunk face peering out of every news site I access. Unfortunately I think she may exhibit limpet like qualities which keep her on set for the whole shoot, or at least until she needs to rehearse for her concert, by which time he may be finished anyway. If she stays the whole 3 months I am saying engagement at Christmas. He's a rabbit in the headlights right now and the longer it goes on the less likely is an escape.
This is the whole exchange betweent those journalists on twitter
http://theopiniondominion.tumblr.com/post/147134410965/vanity-fair-critic-richard-lawson-may-have-just
Lol he played coy because they're still trying to make people believe that they are a super private couple but "ugh Taylor is just SO famous so the paparazzi show up everywhere, following us, we can't help it but obviously I'm Mr. Privacy so il not gonna talk about it." They don't care if majority of fans and media have figured out the shots are all set up. They'll put the public facade of not talking about because please respect our privacy but they'll call the paps because obviously they want the spotlight on them.
>>735 That's an impossible narrative to keep, if they walk the Emmy red carpet together, what is he going to do Pretend she is not there and say he wants to talk only about his job?
Besides I doubt TS wants to not be talked about.
Interesting body language when he was asked about TS being The One, he literally moved away from the journalist and looked elsewhere.
>>736 They'll do the thing of talking about it together in front of the cameras on the red carpet because they can ham it up for the public then with adoring looks. And the public will say just like you did "well you can't ignore each other on the red carpet".
But when "ambushed" by reporters and paparazzi, they'll stick to "privacy please". Taylor really wants people to believe she hates the paparazzi and doesn't want any of the attention so this fits in with her "show not tell" aspect until she or he is in a proper interview or asked about it on a maximum coverage platform like a red carpet.
>>734 God he sounds so pretentious saying that after all that transparent staging eyeroll Their red carpet debut is going to be so nauseating and OTT. It'll be so exaggerated.
"I'd rather just talk about the work [nervous laugh]"
Oh, come ON.
That is the most ridiculous thing anyone has said about this whole stupid affair.
>>713 I think those are his regular glasses. The reflection on the side arm makes them look different.
>>734 >>738 Yeah he can fuck off with that. Properly fuck off. I'm sure he only wants to talk about The Work - NOW. You cannot have it both ways, and he's a fool to think he can. He has opened his private life up to scrutiny (and ridicule) and there's no rewind button on that. He can say 'I only want to talk about the work' but reporters are going to ask...and ask...and ask.
I wouldn't be surprised if his people, her people, maybe even his own deluded, lurved up brain told him that he could switch the narrative back and forth seamlessly: 'I can pap stroll and stunt, but when I'm filming I can refuse to talk about Tay and TayTo, and people will respect that.' Nope, and more nope.
>>739 This is the type of rubbish that makes me lose all sympathy for him. Such a two-faced twerp. 'Sacred' and 'the work' and then staged stunts. And then back to 'sacred' and 'the work!!' Urghhhhhh.
>>732 If she stays the whole three months, 1) she's an idiot - because they will drive each other insane! I don't care how much you're in love or how co-dependent you are, every type of personality needs some alone time away from SOs and relatives. 2) I don't know if an engagement would be in the offing, but I'd bet on another long relationship as with CH. I think that CH was the first bf to make it past the five month mark, so Tayto would likely follow in the same pattern. Because girl's got a pattern!
Wait, I thought we were to the writing home and shouting it from the rooftops stage. When did we rewind? Good god you can't wear an I<3TS shirt then refuse to admit you're dating. I mean, you can.. but it's kinda ludicrous.

This is a favorite from today's pics. The girl in the lower right corner: 'Who the hell are you? Where is Taylor?'
>>742 Don't mention the irttshay. She'll start sending him out in it. She WILL.
Curiouser and curiouser: Theoanons returns briefly to say that she deleted the blog because the tiny PhD story was true in part (????!!!!!):
http://theopiniondominion.tumblr.com/post/147139465250/hello-tod-theoanons-here-not-sure-how-im
General comments :
ONE final thing: I don't think he's gay. I think he's bi.
>>745 It's lost in all the madness of the last thread but I mentioned this after reading some of her final posts. The ones she made after the final PhD message (which was a sighting of the woman in his local pub) were very pointed, i.d. directed at an actual person who'd contacted her. It was like she was apologizing for posting it but then didn't want to erase them because that would just draw attention to them. I could be reading too much into it!! And the first message I saw before she edited was directed toward someone in graduate school in a long distance relationship.
The one anon that knew of the sister (or some relative) of the actual waitress did give a plausible story - if not fully convincing; she had some pretty good details. Also when Theoanons said that the woman was Dutch, the anon wrote back to clarify and say that she didn't know where the Dutch thing came from, the woman was Italian or Spanish. The most convincing thing for me was the quote from TH about her hobby being his job and his hobby being her job. He'd say shit like that to 'make a connection.'
I don't think that this woman is still on the scene and happily hanging out at chez Hiddleston while he puts on an elaborate fake relationship for publicity. But a short little relationship after THEO and before Tayto - I could believe that. I also could believe she may have done the dumping. The waitress said that the woman said something along the lines of 'I need to finish my PhD first' which could be her version of 'the dates/overnighters were nice, but you're needy and I've got a thesis to finish.'
Don't people tend to rebound with opposites? Who would be the total opposite of a petite, brunette Italian/Spaniard who was mature, intelligent, focused and not willing to drop her entire life for a man? Who?
>>748 Ok, I'm not really interested in this story since there's no material, but I have to ask: when is this supposed to have happened? He was in another continent until March (the last time THEO were seen together at ISTL premiere in LA) and on promotion since then. And if you believe Tayto started rigth after Met....does TH do alternate universes? ;)
Forgot. Theoanon at first didn't take the waitress/friend of waitress' messages or the rumor seriously. She called it bullshit a few times. But then she took it very seriously, so seriously that she didn't want people looking into her archive for those messages. So seriously that she deleted an entire blog to get rid of those posts. Those are pretty drastic measures for rumors you don't really believe. I think someone coughed up some cold, hard evidence and Theoanons felt bad about posting info about a real person. I didn't get the sense that she was all about the 'tea' and trying to get the scoop, so I can believe that she'd delete a blog to 'protect' someone.
I like this mystery better than the WTF is going on with TH mystery! I don't think I managed to read all of the PhD posts, does anyone else remember anything about them?
>>749 Tayto may have had a ONS the evening/morning of the Met. I don't know if I believe that she'd do that. That's a pretty crazy and unscripted thing to do - for her. But he spent a good amount of May in London, not?
Maybe they met last year or at the start of this year. He seems to like to romance over the phone, so that's what he does when away and then May...the lusty month of May!
I mean, TH's relationships have always had the jankiest of timelines.
>>750 You pretty much have the whole gist of the TPG (tiny PhD girl) story. Those were all the details. Some anons poured in after that claiming they'd see a girl with that description around his place but as usual there's no way to tell if those anons were legit or just fans trying to give traction to TPG story to show that she's the real gf and all this Taylor stuff is to protect her (too fanfic man too fanfic)
The TPG story could be a casual hookup being blown out of proportion. I'm sure he has those in between gfs and maybe they did try dating seriously but the timing sucked so Tom hit up the second girl on his list, Taylor and it worked out. I don't think there's nearly enough time period between THEO breaking up and him working on Skull Island for him to get seriously involved with someone the way the TPG story is making it out to be. The timing of the story is very suspect for me too because stories like this ALWAYS come out when it becomes public knowledge that Tom could be seeing someone or has a gf.
If you wanna get conspiracy about theoanons and TPG story, maybe Taylor's people found the blog and saw the stories and told theoanons to get rid of it...
>>746 Which TayTay board? Is there one here on Kareha? Or are you talking tumblr - I daren't look at the TS blogs over there as I value my safety too much.
>>751 too iffy and unsubstantiated for me, it's all yours, have fun!
>>754 no sorry, I read taytaybeard instead is board. My bad
Re Tiny PhD: I don't know because the timing is suspect as ever. There was one post saying it was an open secret in the fandom/Hampstead - if so it was not one I saw anywhere else in the fandom. As to Hampstead, well I am a small busty brunette and people did not run up to me in the street feeling my breasts and asking if I was doing a PhD and/or doing TH.
That said, and although these blogs usually go poof in an aura of drama and intrigue, theoanons didn't strike me as the type to do that. I said before I thought she was quite like us. Down to earth and snarky - and not I suspect easily fooled by catfishers.
The only thing I can think is she sent some big receipt to theoanons like a photo of them together (with her PhD thesis in draft in a corner!! I'm kidding but you get my drift).
What I recall of the original post was that it was a waitress's overhearing an intense and handholdy convo all he lines of "your work is my hobby & vice versa" and (the kicker) "we'll work it out somehow." That was pretty much it.
As to timing - well, I guess it depends partly on when THEO called it a day (or maybe it doesn't, eh Calvin?). If they split at Christmas (remember that article in November that they split - possibly after the secret HI trip nobody knew of at that time, possibly after the visit to LA just before Christmas) then maybe he had some thing with her. Or maybe he was double dipping, or hedging his bets in May.
"Taylor Swift and Tom Hiddleston’s fairy-tale romance slash probable publicity stunt, explained"
http://www.vox.com/2016/7/9/12099354/taylor-swift-tom-hiddleston-hiddleswift-relationship-fake
Has anyone else seen the new cover of People magazine? It's the pic of TS and TH hugging in the water, and TS's face blocks out his head completely! You can't see his face at all! Of all the pics they took! It's the Swift agenda! If only I knew what her goal is.
This is an old interview but it reveals so much about how everything in her life is controlled and planed. she has a social media team (not one person, a team!!) and her security team monitors twitter in order to plan her every move.
Also, she can keep things secret when she wants to.

>>764 well,the first is called having a life that doesn't turn around Tayto, the second doesn't even deserve an answer.
Also do try not to make double posts.
http://etcanada.com/video/721940547505/tom-hiddleston-chats-with-fans-on-the-gold-coast/
Asked if he could do something so that the little girl could meet TS too, TH's answer was "I don't know what I can do (and something else I can't hear)"...Really?!
Asked "How much did she (TS) want a vacation?", TH's answer is "I can't speak for her"...Really?!
Do they only see each other for photoshoots?
Here's a good pic where you can see he went running with the bodyguard. He's under surveillance.
http://67.media.tumblr.com/87fc75ded7fddf7cf9e2df8177d33b28/tumblr_oa29ppbsRM1s3mt48o1_500.jpg
>>764 We posted 70 or so times yesterday (Saturday), so I'd say we were pretty active at the weekend. I haven't posted over the last 8 or 9 hours because I am on a European time zone so I've been asleep!
>>766 I didn't watch the video yet but I think this is the same encounter as the "I'd rather talk about the work" interview.
He is making himself ridiculous. He wears that t-shirt (for a 5 minute trip to the beach for photos, which he must have known would be papped), he poses for a photo on the porch showing how loved up they are, but then he can't speak for TS?
Can he not see what an idiot he is making of himself?
A real fart of an article from Bustle. I believed this relationship was fake....until I got a call from Taylor's publicist telling me to recant: http://www.bustle.com/articles/171530-in-defense-of-taylor-swift-tom-hiddlestons-relationship-because-theyre-not-fake-dating
And an article with no journalistic content but a hilarious title: "Tom Hiddleston goes jogging without Taylor Swift..."
>>769 He really is from any point of view.
For people who think there's some sort of relationship going on, his answers are ridiculous, almost offensive.
For people who think is a ruse for a video, his answers, while understandable, are silly and amateurish. In theory he's supposed to be selling the lie.
A bad show.
Haven't posted as have had guests staying this weekend and entertaining them.
I can't believe he seriously thinks the "I'd rather talk about the work" bullshit stance is going to wash in light of his recent PR japery. Quite disappointed tbh.
I just watched the video. That poor little girl. It is possible for a parent to stop that kind of obsession developing. For example by not feeding it by driving for three hours to stay in the same hotel.
>>764 I check but not as frequently and certainly not as much on weekends. Also everything is all pretty much the same with TayTo so far so not much extra to contribute that others haven't said before.
>>772 His "please my work" answers were really pathetic. Especially because you could see the clear disinterest on the reporters' faces when he was talking about Thor and the crew.
His Taylor answers are beyond pathetic. It makes him sound like him and Taylor are not close at all much less bf gf. You'd think they would've worked on some PR answers for this already.
I'm surprised we haven't had a couples pap stroll yet. I wonder if TH did this one on his own to check his own fame levels. Too bad most of the little girls were Taylor fans and the reporters only saw Tom as an extension to get to Taylor.
>>766 He's certainly making it sound like they only meet for photoshoots and then go home. So many "oh we're so in love" pics and articles only to have TH give such lame answers. I really hope the press and reporters ignore his "my work" answers and keep pressing for info on him and Taylor. You can't have it both ways pal. You invited the media and the public in now face the music.
>>774 I watched it again and I quite want to throttle him.
How can he not see it? If the RI pics had been all we saw, I could just about forgive that comment. Ok, they chose to get the news out rather than waiting to be caught, but that is understandable and a lot of celebs do it. Even if it was 2 seconds after they "officially" started dating. But after everything else? Even assuming every single other pic was taken by lurking paparazzi (which it wasn't, see verandah rocking chair photo of lurve), they have chosen to reveal their most intimate moments to those paps (first moments with mama in the street instead of in her home, kissing in the intimate and isolated surroundings of the Colosseum in June, wearing a demonstrative t shirt while frolicking on a deserted beach).
There's living your life without giving in to pap intrusion (taking a restaurant table by the window because it's nicer than sitting at the back by the bathroom) and then there's - everything else.
>>777 Mr Anon (a couple of weeks ago): "I hope he realises he won't be able to get the toothpaste back in the tube."
The side effects of such a public romance. Other random tabloids will start writing about you too and they will write some interesting stuff https://inoutstar.com/tom-hiddleston-is-still-texting-elizabeth-olsen-has-regrets-about-taylor-swift-4736
>>779 I couldn't stop laughing when all the reporters kept asking about Taylor. He was so irrelevant lol and then him trying to talk about Thor but the reporters too busy bringing in that little girl who was obsessed with Taylor. What a joke.
>>763 I was out with family for dinner and a movie Saturday evening, Saavy.
>>778 You'd think TayTo had rehearsed answers to some of the more basic questions like where TS is, how does she like it. His answers make him sound like he suddenly got nervous about breaking his contract with her.
Here's an interesting article that explains more about how she is than I'd ever read - anxious, paranoid, childlike (by her own admission). It's almost 2 years old but it explains a fair amount of what we're seeing:
http://www.rollingstone.com/music/features/taylor-swift-1989-cover-story-20140908?page=4
That crying TS fan was too much, ugh, even TH was squirming.
Knowing the paps were waiting for him, the glorious photogenic beach jog was surely no accident.
Massive eyeroll at the change of tune to focus on the werk. I guess the only way he can back up that claim is to lock TS in the penthouse like Rapunzel and not let her out until its time to leave.
So much backpedaling; in the great words of Barry McKenzie "I hope your balls turn into bicycle wheels and back-peddle up your arse"
She will have to pap stroll eventually but I think she'll stroll solo (or with other cast so's) so he can kid himself that the focus is on him and his werk.
>>780 Imagine taking TH back as sloppy seconds after this charade. I'd kick him to the curb
>>776 2 possibilities for TS:
I want a journalist with enough gut to ask him if he kept his I♥TS tanktop and if he will sport it again. Or even talk about it.
>>786 The imagining of that has made my day, thank you. lol
The author of this post is considered by some in the fandom to be nuts. Can't comment one way or another as I don't follow. However I did ROFL at this observation when it arrived on my dash:
http://gitsie007.tumblr.com/post/147180652308/rivier-its-going-to-be-pretty-weird-for-tom
>>789 Sorry, I mean the original author may or may not be nuts. The reblogger shares the views of this board!
>>791 He's trying to boost sales of The Pirate Fairy.
>>792 hahahahah Of course! Next TH's projects: The Pirate Fairy Goes To Met, The Pirate Fairy in Love, The Pirate Fairy Around the World in 3 Weeks.
Oh ffs, another couple pap stroll in a crowded restaurant.
I cannae take much moar of this
>>794 He had to get an update on what she likes, in case he is asked again.
I'm seriously hoping none of the cast will partake in this madness. Especially Ruffalo. Unless he makes faces like Ryan Reynolds.
Bleugh the twinning...make it stop
Is this going to be known as her blue era?
>>795 I wouldn't be surprised if other cast members join in- they've all seen their fair share of lavender marriages and thirsty behaviour and I imagine they would want to support TH as a friend.
It'll be interesting to see how the new cast members and director behave.
I'm putting money on a reenactment of SI squad goal outings curated by the queen of squad goals herself.
>>796 he needs support? isn't he suppose to be on cloud nine? ;)
I don't know about the Hemsworth's, Liam is dating Miley and....God, this is so like highschool I can't even finish the sentence.
>>797 I avoided all this shit in high school. Art department/ sports girl here. It's so equally fascinating and cringeworthy.
Picture caption from the Fail:

"These two have an expiration date and its soon. And I really wish people would stop saying Taylor has breast implants. They are NOT. Those are Tom's balls."
